What's the issue? Do you normally label switches at home?

[–] ThomasWilliams@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

Skill issue.

[–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 1 points 6 days ago

Shame on you if you vrbo and don't!

I think he's comparing it to user interfaces in the computing sense.

For context (sort of), I'm pretty sure that's the same John Carmack who is one of the pioneers of the FPS genre of games as the lead dev of Wolfenstein 3d back in 1992.

[–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 1 points 6 days ago

Yes, John Carmack of evil floating point magic fame.

For a 6 switch panel wouldn't be a bad idea. I'm poor so my rooms only have one switch per room, so it's pretty straightforward. But maybe some day...

[–] ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 10 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Switches at my home change place with every update so I have to re-learn which switch does what. It's a nightmare.

[–] tburkhol@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

I've got a couple of "smart" switches now, and this comment made me realize that I could have homeassistant reassign them periodically & randomly.

Lmao, this person is going to be lock out of its own house after a bugged update.

Batman does. But they're all labeled "Bat light switch"

[–] usualsuspect191@lemmy.ca 2 points 6 days ago

No, those ones turn on the Bat Light.

There isn’t an issue.
